DecemberHow Battlefield 6 Can Be Even Better Than Modern Warfare
It's a bit of an abstract concept, but Battlefield has consistently focused on a strictly historical/realistic perspective in its most recent iterations. That alone isn't necessarily a bad thing, but it does make for a less creative or unique identity for Battlefield . At least in terms of gaming, it very quickly becomes just another game about the horrors of war, and less about people playing this game for entertainment. Future Battlefield games don't need to necessarily go crazy and be super campy like Bad Company , but for lack of a better expression, Battlefield shouldn't take itself too seriously. War is scary, but Battlefield should be fun first and forem
During EA Play's 2020 Live showcase, there was an interesting tidbit shared at the end of the show from chief studios officer Laura Miele. Towards the end of the showcase, EA showed off some very early next-gen development footage from EA's first-party development studios like BioWare, Criterion, and DICE. "Our studios are taking their crazy, ambitious ideas and making them real," stated Miele. "Every console generation DICE sets the bar for excellence in audio and visual presentation. We are creating epic battles at a scale and fidelity unlike anything you've experienced before." This is almost certainly in reference to Battlefield 2042 leveling guide 6 , or whatever Battlefield title is currently in the works for 2
DICE might have another Battlefield game in the works alongside Battlefield 6 . According to a September rumor, a remake of Battlefield 3 , one of the most popular installments in the series, could be in development. The source of the leak is the Stockholm studio itself. On Twitter, DICE posted a short clip from the game followed by a "What?" question, which could either indicate a Battlefield 3 remaster or subtly confirm the modern setting for Battlefield 6 . Regardless, nothing else has been shared in regards to that since the initial September publicat
Wilson said in his opening remarks that the success of many games including Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order , Apex Legends (which is moving forward with a mobile release ), Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville , and titles out of EA Sports have positioned the company to continue growing and expanding into Asia. With particular credit given to Fallen Order and Apex Legends , EA has "generated record operating cash flow," a net revenue of $1.593 billion, over the last year according to Jorgen
Not much was said about the next-generation Battlefield . However during the call's Q&A, Wilson responded to a comment about the title saying he expects that DICE LA's new lead Vince Zampella and David Rota, the head of their European studios, are "having a really strong impact" and their teams will "do some pretty amazing thin
Quite recently, Russian industry insider Anton Logvinov shared a brief statement on Twitter claiming that Battlefield 6 is not what fans want, although it plays well. Judging by his subsequent commentaries, the insider hasn’t played the game himself while the information was probably coming from third parties participating in closed testing. Shortly after that, another industry insider, Tom Henderson, claimed the contrary stating that Battlefield 6 will actually be what fans of the series want . Interestingly, the source of Henderson’s confidence is pretty much the same as Logvinov’s concerns. According to those participating in internal testing, the game is receiving significantly more positive feedback than the previous titles. This reception makes Henderson believe that DICE is handling Battlefield 6 in a way that should satisfy f
Thanks to the success of games like Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order , EA is clearly feeling ambitious about its future plans. Fans of its many properties will just have to wait and see how the company delivers on these ambitions once the PS5 and Xbox Series X hit shel
That being said, this is just an interpretation of the next-gen prototypes shown in EA Play Live earlier this year. EA and DICE have confirmed that a new Battlefield game (presumably Battlefield 6 ) is headed for PS5 and Xbox Series X/S, and currently has a 2021 release window planned. Occasionally rumors have come out about the next Battlefield game, some of which have been proven false , others have no evidence or backing. Overall, it'll be interesting to see what's truly in store for the once revered shooter franch
In a game like Battlefield , Gunsmith almost makes more sense to include than in Modern Warfare . Weapon balance in Battlefield has been spotty at times, but the expanded weapon customization introduced in Battlefield 3 compensated for that in a big way. If anything, expanding the systems that were introduced in Battlefield 3 and 4 into a Gunsmith-like system could help differentiate teammates/opponents from each other. Since every player picks one of four soldier classes, there'd be a lot of overlap between players' choice of weapon and equipment. Classes were constraining to a specific gameplay style, like how engineers were almost strictly close-range fighters with S
